We're Screaming for Ice Cream (Flavored Smoothies)

Posted by Emilie von Unwerth on August 25, 2015

There's only a few weeks left of summer, and - like always - all of us at BEAR have been trying to be really good about eating well. But even with the beautiful and bountiful berries, cucumbers, peppers and melons distracting us (and filling our bellies!), we can't seem to get ice cream off our minds.

We know there's nothing wrong with splurging on a sweet treat once in a while, but we like to avoid those little binges whenever we can. So last night, when that ice cream craving hit, we duped our sweet tooths with a vegan smoothie.

Throw all ingredients into your blender and blend until smooth. This drink is not only really good for you but it actually tastes like a mint chocolate chip ice cream shake! It is a hefty drink, though, so if you're trying this recipe for dessert, we suggest you share it.

Enjoy! And sweet (sweet, mint chocolate-chippy) dreams,

BEAR

*Note: start out with ½ cup of rice milk. Add more to thin the drink out to your liking.
